About the Item
James Austin Murray’s paintings are made using the most basic of means: ivory black oil paint, a canvas and wood-panel support, and wallpaper brushes—up to nine affixed to a long handle. But the surface effects are far from simple, and indeed offer an almost otherworldly experience, as the striations from the brush take the eye on a roller-coaster journey into pleats and folds, over light-struck hillocks and into shadowy crooks and bends. Depending on where you stand, the paintings look like a forbidding landscape you could walk right into. It’s a visual encounter that is both unsettling and profoundly seductive.

James Austin Murray
Painter James Austin Murray works within self imposed rules that allow him to create engaging paintings in pure Ivory black oil on canvas. The unadulterated pigment allows for the texture and movement of the paint to come through. Murray’s work evokes Zen sand gardens in the quiet raking of the paint. His work is meditative, and gestural, yet precise in his technique- the flat surface expands and contracts, ripples and pulses leaving the viewer with a clear sense of movement. Murray, who worked for years as a firefighter, explains that his painting practice is a way to meditate on his connection to the earth, which is enhanced by his use of handmade brushes and pigments he makes himself out of soil sourced from sites with personal or cultural importance. Murray has exhibited in New York, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, Singapore, Monaco, Chicago, and Miami. His works are in the collections of the Kimpton Hotel Palomar Philadelphia, Tom Ford, and Thomas Pheasant in Washington D.C.
